DuroCut Line Head is rated 5.0 out of 5 by 7.

Rated 5 out of 5 by correcaminos from BEST. THING. EVER.This is the way to go with trimmer heads; buy a spool of line, cut a few to length, and replace them as needed. No more fussing with the tap heads.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Albert0925 from Excellent compared to the bump spool line trimmer.I bought the Stihl KM 130 motor head and also attachment for the brush cutter. I have another line trimmer attachment with the bump spool trimmer and always had problems with the line feed. While I'm giving this line trimmer to my son, I bought this trimmer head to change out with the brush cutter attachment. What a difference and joy it is to use. It is not that expensive either and well worth the change compared to the hassle of having to deal with a bump spool.Lines are easy to remove and change out when needed. You can also get easy replacement lines or buy a spool and measure and cut your own trimmer lines.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Yardomatic from STRESS FREE WEED WHACKIN' ..........Good bye bump spool. Got this for my Kombi - good buy at the local Stihl dealer. The instructions show to put some water in with your nylon string - reason is nylon will lose moisture and become brittle. Knowing that and the thicker .120 (3mm) line it uses really does the job.............

Rated 5 out of 5 by Bailey from Excellent HeadEasily installed the DuroCut Head 20-2 and have been very pleased with its performance. It has been very reliable and it is very easy to change the strings. The DuroCut Head is much less hassle than a bump head. Thank you Stihl for making this head and pleased do not discontinue it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Marshallnaut from Much better than "bump & feed"I totally agree with Gary86. The DuroCut is MUCH easier to use than the bump-&-feed line head that came stock with my Stihl FS-56 trimmer. Although you can't feed line on the run with the DuroCut, most of the time my bump-&-feed head wouldn't either. I would spend more time unsnarling the spools and re-threading the the head than trimming. I tried several brands of line (including Stihl) in effort to find some dependability and ease of use in the original head. The DuroCut uses much heavier, serrated pre-cut line segments that are tougher and longer lasting than the original line. When you do have to stop and reload line, its quick and easy. Just pull the remaining line segment out through the center, push the new line in from the outside, and GO!
